why aren't they breeding now?

Hi all
when i bought 4 guppies from my local petshop i got a lovely surprise later on that evening - it was a case of buy 4, get 7 free!
Well now the fry are all grown up. Since then 'Mum' as we've named her has had 3 more fry. That was months and months ago and they didn't survive
Any ideas as to why she's not had any more babies since then? Not that we desperately want her to but it would be nice. ALL of our other guppies are males so you'd think she'd have a chance !

They may have gotten eaten before you realised or could still be hiding. Have you seen a gravid spot? She may be sick.

hi guppy lover,

Mum last gave birth about 9 months ago - only 3 fry and im afraid they didnt survive - ithink they were eaten by my largest angel fish.
I've been keeping a close eye on her but never seen any signs off fry, if i did i'd seperate them if possible til they had a chance against my big piggy angelfish!
Oh well... considering adding 3or 4 new guppies so may get a female or 2 in with those. I really love their beautiful colours i think they're very underrated fish!
I'd like to intro some i've seen with lavender/blue coloured tails.
